Thats a proper hailstone alright!! Unbelievable forces at work to keep something this size and weight suspended within the cloud to enable it to grow to this size-very strong updrafts. Thanks for this Richard.

Thanks for the link Richard, those are massive!, as Paul said - can you imagine the strength of that updraught - wow. I heard Mike Hollingshead chatting about this event, he got a few shots of the storm which produced that giant hail. http://www.extremeinstability.com/stormpics/2010/2010_07_23_06140.jpg

You'll have to set up a 'charity chase fund,Tyler 'Lol. It was a good season right to the end. Massive hailstone and as Paul & Martin mentions I wonder what the updraught velocity was ?
